Flying Lotus – Until the Quiet ComesFlying Lotus – Until the Quiet Comes

Until the Quiet Comes is by far the least “spiky” album of the LA-based Flying Lotus. At times it’s even too soft, unusual. But then, there’s more to the seeming simplicity of the album – a lot to listen into. Guest vocals by Erykah Badu, Niki Randa, Thom Yorke are all in right places, too.

The album is like a long stare at an art object or an intriguing panorama. There are echoes of the older times in music, and the modern signature sound by Steven Ellison. If his former works are more rigid technological extravaganza structures, Until the Quiet Comes is built through and through from ponderous fluid forms.
